Buyer’s notes
About the Morgan 4/4 Series II
The 4/4 Series II of 1955 to 1960 used Ford’s 1,172 cc side-valve 100E engine with a three-speed Ford gearbox, giving 36 bhp; about 386 were built. Like other Morgans of its time it has a steel ladder chassis, sliding-pillar front suspension and a body framed in ash.
What moves the price
- Specification: whether a car has the Aquaplane alloy head offered from 1957, or the twin-carburettor Competition specification.
- The ash frame, which is hard to judge because most of it is hidden.
- Chassis condition, especially around the suspension mounts.
Before you buy, check
- The ash frame: squeeze the bodywork for soft spots, and see whether the hinge post moves with the door open.
- Chassis corrosion, especially around the suspension mounts.
- The sliding-pillar front suspension, which needs regular lubrication.
